Re: Ladrar, ladrón, ladrillo

Speaking of barking dogs, a joke in Spanish :P perro-con-un-taladro.jpg — ¿Qué hace un perro con un taladro? — ¡Taladrando! :D The joke is based on a play on words: taladrando (drilling) ← 'ta ladrando ("'s" barking) ← está ladrando (is barking) ;)

Sun and Moon letters

The consonants in the Arabic alphabet are divided into two groups:

  1. sun letters or solar letters (حروف شمسية)

  2. moon letters or lunar letters (حروف قمرية)

The following table shows both, sun and moon letters.

Note. To be continued… ;)

Possessive particle

Maybe it's explained at a tip page, but from the lesson I'm guessing that the Korean particle (ui) works as a possessive particle —similar to the Japanese (no) particle.
